The final script which replicates all materials from the paper is contained in 
ia_rep/analysis/ia_rep replication script.R. You must set an appropriate
path to the folder on your computer which holds the replication folder, ia_rep.
This path should be set to the curcomp object located at the top of 
ia_rep replication script.R.

The replication file ia_rep contains three main folders:

analysis: contains all data and scripts for the project.
data: contains all data sets assembled into the analysis data.
paper: this file contains two subfolders. paper/tables contains all of the tables 
contained in the file. The replication script writes to this folder. paper/figures 
is analogous.
